Teaching American History/Stories & Histories
A project that shows teachers how to. . .
-
Guide their students through all steps of the historical investigation process
-
Include local history to demonstrate the national historical narrative
-
Engage students in understanding and appreciating America's colorful and eventful past
-
Utilize the latest in digital storytelling approaches and technology to engage students
Our goal is to improve teachers' content knowledge in American history, expand teachers’ pedagogical approaches in their history lessons, and to introduce the most up-to-date, effective technological methods in presenting historical information. We believe this will improve all students' interest in and appreciation for US history resulting ultimately in improved performance in and retention of this important and necessary discipline.
